## Summary

The Aberdeenshire Council is initiating a planned procurement titled "Capability & Capacity Exercise - Coastal development project," funded by a £25,000 allocation from the Coastal Communities Fund. This project aims to promote and enhance the use of the Aberdeenshire coastal path, deliver initiatives for its improvement, and explore sustainable strategies for its management. Key dates include the deadline for expressions of interest by 5pm on Sunday, 30th August 2020, and a future notice date set for 4th September 2020. The procurement is categorised as a service and falls within the general public services sector.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in project management, environmental consultancy, and sustainable development, particularly those that specialise in coastal and community projects. Firms with expertise in promoting and managing public resources, enhancing local infrastructure, and delivering strategic development initiatives would be especially well-suited to participate. Responding to this opportunity could facilitate business growth by establishing collaborations with Aberdeenshire Council and gaining visibility in community-focused projects.

## Notice

Aberdeenshire Council has committed 25,000 GBP of Coastal Communities Fund allocation to establish the Coast Aberdeenshire Project. The principal objectives of the Coast Aberdeenshire Project are to: 1. Promote and enhance awareness, wider use and better integration of the Aberdeenshire coastal path corridor resource. 2. Deliver targeted local initiatives to improve some existing sections of the coastal path. 3. Explore sustainable strategies for ongoing promotion, development and management of the coastal path. 4. Assess linkage with regional long-distance routes. We are therefore seeking notes of interest by way of this C&C exercise from firms who could deliver this service.
